HPRT has always believed that effective mental health treatment must be grounded in scientific research. When HPRT was founded in the early 1980s, the proper diagnosis and treatment of the mental health problems of refugees and civilian populations devastated by man-made and natural disasters was almost unknown. Empirical discoveries, a number of them made by HPRT, have changed this. These studies revealed the chronic, life threatening psychiatric morbidity associated with violence.
